Non-TF Custom Doctor Whooves minifig

My first venture into scuplting. Using a Shining Armor figure, I cut off his horn and mane, trimmed his tail and added a collar, tie and new mane using Apoxie Clay. The stuff takes a bit of getting used to, but with each time, my skill is improving. Next time, I'll get the good doctor's coat a little bit lighter brown, and painting that cutie mark was a bit of a challenge, so maybe I'll look into a decal instead. I also want to file down the molded eyelids so he can be a bit more expressive in later ones I do. All in all, it was fun to do and it's a welcome addition to my pony figure shelf.

Allon-sy!

Available on iTunes, so good a time as any to start a thread on it:



HIGHLIGHT to view:
Awesome song, brief appearance by Twilight-no other main cast this week, and Derpy sighted at both 3:31 and at 4:11.

Discuss.

Edwin's TF Collection Photos

Hi, folks.

Every year about this time, I move some furniture and use as much floor space to set up a majority of my TF collection. I just finished last week and here are some pictures I took:

Movie toys ... and Burger King's The Fallen! Devastator is standing on a clear plexiglass stand, so it looks like he's floating. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-hotrod.gif)

Maybe next year I'll display Beast Era and/or UT stuff instead of Animated and Movie. The BT and Alternators also take a lot of time to set up. I have a display cabinet in my bedroom that I change the toys out every month or so, but it's cool to see hundreds of them set up all at once. My nephew helped me set up and take down some of the newer stuff. Some of those Movie figures are a pain. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-wildride.gif)

WTT: MOSC Animated Arcee (x 2) for Animated Rodimus

Like the title says, looking for MOC, obviously. Doesn't have to be mint, so long as it's sealed. I live in the USA. Would also be interested in trading for his case-mate Ironhide.

Thanks,

Pac-Man turns 30

I used to have the 45 RPM single of "Pac-Man Fever" among other assorted tie-in merchandise. As a young lad, the gas station closeest to my house had the tabletop version. I rode my bike there several times to get the high score on the machine and buy a 28 cent candy bar. Before Galaga hit, this was my favorite game to drop quarters into.
